About the Project

In the laboratory of Biophysical Engineering, the Institute of Industrial Science, at the University of Tokyo, Japan, we have an open project for Master or PhD students.

Project description

Inflammatory bowel diseases (Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis) are chronic inflammatory diseases of the digestive tract that are challenging to treat. Biological therapies are the gold standard in the disease management, but they are costly and frequently ineffective. In this project, we will employ Antioxidant Nanozyme recently developed our collaborators and antimicrobial peptides that we study in our group to develop treatment for the inflammatory bowel diseases. We will characterize the function of the antioxidants in vitro and in vivo by different biochemistry assays including hyperspectral microscopy. Antimicrobial peptide will be combined with antioxidant to test the potential synergistic effects.

Keywords

Antioxidant, antimicrobial peptides, spectroscopy

Qualifications

Highly-motivated students with any background who are interested in pursuing a research career are encouraged to apply.

How to apply

If you are interested, please send your CV to kaori-s@iis.u-tokyo.ac.jp. Selected candidates will be invited to an online Interview. Once the candidate passed the interview, he/she will be guided to go through the applications for the PhD program at the University. Due to the large number of the applications, we will contact the candidate only if he/she was selected for the interview.
